The revision was made following a security and threat assessment of one of the Israeli public's favorite vacation destinations.
Still, the CTB warned that "There is an ongoing threat of terrorist attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets in Turkey," the advisory stated Tuesday.
"Accordingly, it is the CTB's recommendation to avoid non-essential visits to the country or at least take precautions and remain highly vigilant."
